Nameless Monk

Nameless Monk is a human monk with no memory of his past. He awoke one day on the mysterious isle with his memories stripped from him and a deathly disease. His right arm is afflicted with the curse of undeath as would the rest of his body were it not for the kindness of an elderly monk. The monk took the young man in and taught him his ways as well as gave him a vial of holy water halting the spread of the disease. Peaceful and tranquil when left undisturbed but a force of nature when angered as a result, Nameless Monk has become little more than a sleeping giant. Along with the training, he was taught the code for which the man lived. The cycle of life and death continues, this code gave the man purpose, to give the dead the burials and respect they deserve. His affliction however, is a constant reminder that he himself is an abomination to the cycle and thus seeks to aid any undead in returning to the place they belong, buried and in the afterlife with the tidal father. This however is his downfall, this goal makes him willing to do anything in order to aid the dead in regaining their eternal sleep and thus can be used to manipulate him.

His training and goal have led him to long for a life most would find unsettling but in his eyes glorious and necassary. He longs for a life were he is free of his undead arm and restored to his full humanity, and tend to the graves he so carefully prepares for the departed until his time comes. He even has prepared his own grave for when he goes to meet the tidal father and welcomes death as he would an old friend.

The old man refused to give him a name, viewing names as a means to connect the spirit to the world and thus a possible way to upset the balance, thus to this day the monk seeks a name willing to let the first person he meets give it to him.
